| Was a great FF even with the weather. I have even more respect for those guys. Doing hard 3d 3' off the ground in all that wind!!! The vids don't do it justice, it was blowing 15-20 mph continuous with at least 10 mph gusts! The Eric Larson wreck was much more impressive, I know someone was filming it cause he showed it to Eric afterwards. Hopefully they will post the vid. I was very impressed with Eric's reaction, no anger or blaming it on the wind, he stepped up and said that he was a little early on powering out of the manuever. I missed the mid-air by 15 minutes!!
Thanks Rockie, Szabo's, and everyone else there for a great FF. Hopefully next year the weather will be better. |
